Default I'll be there

Raylene and I will be attending Corowa for the first time. Staying thursday through to sunday at the Statesman Motel. I believe this is a good midway point between Ball park and the airport. Also non military, most likely will be in a Ford Falcon.

Default Corowa

As most people know, the Museum is planning on attending Corowa this year. The staff will be staying at the Airfield in vans etc.
As far as entries are concerned I can announce that transport and the Head Quarters willing, we are planning on bringing a Leopard, M113 and another little tid bit that people will definately find rather interesting.

Unfortunately, Jif will NOT be attending this year due to a variety of circumstances, but has every intention of coming down for the 30th anniversary show in March '09... while I regret this one-year lapse in attendance, it is to my advantage so I'm not whinging TOO much! I look forward to seeing you all in a year.

Default Corowa

Mate, I don't know about that. AAVA are planning to turn up with a few as well. As I said before though, our issue is transport as Defence have only one transporter in the region that can carry these things, and our priority is fairly low.

We will also be brining a light truck as a Repair/Maint vehicle for our vehicles that will be signposted. If you can't see us, look for the 1 ton truck......

Default We'll be there

We'll be there this year. But, alas, it seems the F15 won't. The valves are refusing to budge from their home inside the flathead... I have the s--ts and have thrown a big tantie!
Anyways, we will be staying at a friend's at Wodonga & commuting there Saturday and Sunday. I look forward to catching up to those I met for the first time last year, as well as those new MLU'ers who will be attending for the first time.

Default Re: Howard

Howard, maybe the poor thing needs to be in the house with you instead of being tied up all night! Perhaps you could revisit the issue with your Senate...

BTW, you have other friends? I'm devastated....
